ySense promotes itself as a transparent and reliable rewards site, but my experience over the years, since the days when it was still called ClixSense, has been the opposite, and it has clearly gotten worse over time.
Survey payments have dropped to just a few cents even for surveys that last 20 to 30 minutes or more. The balance between time spent and reward is basically gone. But the biggest issue is that more and more often, after fully completing a long survey, you get disqualified or receive no credit during the final redirect back to ySense because they say they did not receive confirmation from the provider.
It is hard not to question this when the technical problems seem to happen after all questions are answered. The user provides time, effort, and personal opinions, but if their system or the survey company’s tracking fails, the user loses everything. This happens far too often to feel like a rare or isolated issue.
Support no longer really solves problems. They send standard copy and paste replies saying they understand the frustration but cannot manually credit the survey. In the past, they sometimes reviewed screenshots as proof of completion. Now it feels like ySense avoids responsibility and leaves all the risk on the user.
In one case, support even sent me a link to an article about offers tracking, even though my problem was clearly about surveys. That made it seem like they were not really reading the case and were just sending generic information that did not apply.
They also encourage users to keep trying, but when failures happen this often, continuing just feels like risking more unpaid time. At this point, it feels more like a lottery than a fair system.
I also think part of the problem is that many overly positive reviews online may come from people focused on referrals, which can give newcomers the impression that everything works smoothly, when the reality with surveys is very different.
In the end, the market research companies still get data, the platform avoids responsibility, and the user who spent 30 to 60 minutes can end up with nothing.
I would not recommend this as a serious or reliable way to earn money anymore. It has become more frustration than reward.
